Recycle goods

Recycled objects portray Tongan artist's personal cultural journey

Wellington-based Telly Tuita opened his exhibition 'Tongpop Fetish' in March, then suddenly it came to a halt due to the lockdown.

"It was sad for everybody involved, not just myself," he said.

However, once alert level two was announced in New Zealand, Mr Tuita received the news his exhibition would be extended until 5 July.

"I feel very fortunate for the extension as it gives opportunity for more people to view Tongpop Fetish, which makes me happy during these unsettling times," he said.
